Dominate Xiantu

Chapter 175 Encounter
"City Lord Meng, why are you so angry?" Xuanjizi Shi Shiran came, and happened to see such a scene.

Meng Bo's expression changed several times before he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said apologetically, "My lord Xuanjizi is laughing at you. Some major events have happened in the city. I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the suburbs to enjoy the flowers today."

"Oh? What's the matter, let's talk about it." Xuanjizi asked with great interest.

"Last night, the two big families fought in the city and suffered heavy losses. The structure of the Dark City will change. Today, Meng must deal with this matter first."

"Okay, then Xuanji will follow the city lord all the way to see the scenery of the dark city."

Meng Bo frowned slightly, what does this mystery mean?Why so deliberate?
"Since Master Xuanjizi has a request, Meng will naturally obey. Come on, line up and go to Zhong's house!"

Although he didn't understand why Xuanjizi asked to accompany him, Meng Bo asked himself that there was nothing to dodge, and he just went forward frankly.

Not long after, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion formed a huge ostentation and marched towards Zhong's house.

Xuanjizi sat in the tall and spacious carriage, looking very interested.Meng Bo rode his tall horse with a calm expression, and took the lead to set off.

In the morning of the Dark City, there are many people, and it is extremely lively.What happened last night may not be known to many ordinary people. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and it is another day.

I saw the frame of the city lord's mansion, the chariots and horses rustling, with a murderous look, on the streets of the city, everyone avoided.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" The guards scolded him unceremoniously.

The people who went out early in the morning gave way one after another, looking at the guards with fear in their eyes.

"It's not good, the City Lord's Mansion is marching towards us."

A man dressed in ordinary clothes retreated quietly from the crowd, avoiding the eyes and ears, and rushed to Zhong's house to report the news.

"What?" Zhong Wanli, who was drinking tea and chatting in the living room, suddenly stood up.

He had a good harvest last night, and he was in a great mood. Unexpectedly, Meng Bo started to move in just a few hours?

Zhong Wanli paced back and forth, thinking about countermeasures.

"You step back, first go to the cashier to get ten taels of gold." The person who tipped off the news went happily.

"Zhou Feng!"

"The subordinate is here!" Zhou Feng bowed in from the door.

Zhou Feng's performance this time was very active. Zhong Wanli promoted him to be the leader of the guards and waited in front of the door.

"Hurry up and invite the young master to come, and invite all the other principals." Zhong Wanli said urgently.

Not long after, everyone gathered in the living room, Zhong Wanli said: "You all know the specific situation, everyone, let's take a closer look, what does Meng Bo mean by this?"

Zhong Wei snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, what's the point, it's just to blackmail you." "

Zhong Wannian said: "That's not necessarily the case. We are now making wild suspicions, which may not be true."

Zhong Yi said: "I agree, let's make preparations early and take precautions."

Zhong Wanli glanced around, and finally his eyes fell on Wang Chenghao, "My lord, what's your opinion?"

Wang Chenghao smiled indifferently: "Patriarch, you are being polite. There are no high opinions, but there are a few foolish opinions."

"Ah, please enlighten me, my lord!" Zhong Wanli was overjoyed.

"I guess that the city lord will definitely not really do anything to our Zhong family. He just resents him for not being able to profit from it. It is understandable to do some excessive things when he becomes angry. As long as we bite to death and refuse to recognize Cao's family It’s fine that the treasure house was raided by our people.”

"It's no wonder the young master asked to cover his face last night, and he had to come back from outside the city. It turns out that's the reason. The young master is far-sighted." Uncle Fu praised.

"But last night, the old man was outspoken for a moment, and I did it directly." Zhong Wanli said regretfully.

"It doesn't matter, the Patriarch is worrying too much. When the city lord came this time, the rest of the Cao family must have left completely. There is no one in the Cao family to prove it. Who would know? If we kill him and refuse to admit it, he can help me. What?" Wang Chenghao talked eloquently.

"That's right, my Zhong family's strength has increased greatly, even if it's a little weaker than him, it won't be too much, and Meng Bo doesn't dare to fight me head-on." Thinking of this, Zhong Wanli's waist stiffened.

"Come on, go out with me to welcome the Lord City Lord." Zhong Wanli waved his big hand with great pride.Once he figured out the reason, he was not afraid.

The sound of orderly footsteps gradually approached, and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion came to the gate of Zhong's house.

"Hahaha!" Zhong Wanli stepped out of the door in high spirits, and led everyone from the Zhong family to welcome him out, with Wang Chenghao following at the end.

"Brother Meng, rare customers, rare customers."

"Brother Meng came to my Zhong family, it really makes my Zhong family flourish, I feel very honored!"

"Come, come, everyone, please! The old man has prepared good wine and good food in the mansion, and I will entertain all the honored guests well!" Zhong Wanli was good at dancing with his sleeves, and he responded easily.

Meng Bo sat on the horse without moving. He just stared at Zhong Wanli with piercing eyes, as if he wanted to see through Zhong Wanli.

Without Meng Bo's instructions, the entire guard of the City Lord's Mansion stood solemnly, motionless.

quiet!
No one answered.

The atmosphere suddenly became serious, Zhong Wanli's face changed, and he sneered: "Brother Meng, you came here in such a vicious manner, didn't you come here to drink tea?"

Meng Bo roared in his heart, of course I didn't come here for tea.Thinking of those treasures, Meng Bo's heart bleeds. Such a thing actually happened in my dark city. It would be embarrassing to say it.

Zhong Wanli didn't speak, but just stared at Meng Bo, and the meaning of tit-for-tat between the two became obvious.

"Hahaha," Meng Bo suddenly changed his face into a smile, turned over and fell off his horse, and said, "Brother Zhong, you are overthinking."

"Early this morning, the Lord of the city originally planned to go to the suburbs with Master Xuanjizi to enjoy the flowers, but unexpectedly received a report from his subordinates, saying that the Zhong family and the Cao family fought last night. Oh, they are all hundreds of years old. We've been living peacefully, so why did we start fighting?" Meng Bo shook his head, as if he was about to persuade a fight.

Zhong Wanli also pretended to smile wryly, and said helplessly, "Brother Meng, I don't want to, but that Fatty Cao is too deceitful, and unexpectedly came out with all his nest to attack my Zhong family. Is it tolerable or unbearable? Brother, I can only retaliate. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be the reputation of my Zhong family! Brother Meng, don’t you think so?”

"Yes, yes. Brother Zhong, you can deal with it well." Meng Bo yelled in his heart, telling you to pretend, telling you to pretend, and he had to nod in agreement.

"How did the fight go in the end? The Zhong family didn't suffer any losses, right?" Meng Bo pretended to be concerned.

"Hey, it hurts to say it, Brother Meng, you have to make the decision for me, my brother. The Zhong family suffered a heavy loss when Fatty Cao was shot down." Tears come.

"I really can't bear to look at it directly." Watching the two old turtles play, it is really hard to watch.

Wang Chenghao glanced to the distance, but found a glance from the motorcade of the City Lord's Mansion.The two looked at each other, but then staggered away.

The person who glanced at him was naturally a mysterious person.

Although it was a quick glance, Xuanjizi has already confirmed that this is the person that the uncle said is destined.With the excitement in my heart, the feeling of meeting each other became urgent.

"Ahem, both of you, this has happened, it's useless to talk about it, why don't you sit down and drink tea together?" Xuanjizi said.

Meng Bo, who was so choked that he didn't know how to answer, suddenly heard Xuanjizi's voice, he was overjoyed, bowed and said, "Master Xuanjizi said so."

"Everyone wait, Master Xuanji, please move to Zhong's house to gather together." Meng Bo waved his hand and directed all the guards to stay put and stand by.

"It turns out that Master Xuanjizi has arrived. Zhong has been rude, and I will apologize to you later!" Zhong Wanli stopped talking and bowed to invite him.

A group of people laughed and walked into Zhong's house smiling like old friends for many years.

Today's Zhong family still has traces of last night's fight, and the dried blood on the ground shows the tragic battle last night.

Fortunately, no one present was a rookie, so they selectively ignored these traces and went straight to Zhong's living room, where all the hospitality equipment had already been prepared.

"Come, come, come, both of you are rare visitors, please take your seat." Zhong Wanli invited both of them at the same time.

"No, no, Master Xuanjizi, please take a seat." Meng Bo hurriedly asked Xuanjizi to take a seat, and he took the guest seat.

Zhong Wanli said: "Come here, serve tea!"

After the lingering sound, the two beautiful women stepped forward as they said, and performed a tea ceremony in a pleasing way. Everyone was dazzled and felt that they were too beautiful.

"Tea, please!" After showing the tea ceremony, the two beautiful women finished in unison, and exited the living room respectfully.

"Drink tea, drink tea!" Zhong Wanli said proudly, "This is the top quality tea that I have treasured for decades. You can try it."

"You're already drunk before you drink the tea. Brother Zhong, enjoy yourself." Meng Bo sniffed the cup, and the room was full of fragrance. I don't know if he said he was drunk because of the beauty or the fragrance of the tea.

Xuanji took a sip, filled his mouth with fragrance, and praised sincerely: "Not bad, really good."

Zhong Wanli chuckled, raised his glass and drank it down, and said: "You guys are absurd, if you like it, drink a few more glasses."

"Good tea is worth aftertaste, Brother Zhong, Meng is still more concerned about what happened last night." Meng Bo went straight to the point.

Zhong Wanli thought inwardly, and with no expression on his face, he asked in surprise, "Last night? Brother Meng, is there anything else you don't understand?"

"Last night, the Cao's house was caught in a fire. After a group of masked men raided the Cao's house, they burned the Cao's house down with a torch. Did you know that?" Meng Bo's gaze was like a torch, staring firmly into Zhong Wanli's eyes.

"I know this. At that time, the Cao family and my Zhong family were confronting each other. The two sides were evenly matched. At this moment, a person suddenly broke into the Cao family's team and shouted that someone had raided his old house. Cao Tianhe vomited blood and fell into a coma on the spot. If someone did not sneak into the Cao family, My Zhong family may not escape disaster." Zhong Wanli recalled and sighed.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank those masked people. Without them taking advantage of the fire to rob, how could my Zhong family survive? Brother Meng, have you found out who those masked people are?"

Meng Bo was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. If I found out, why would I come to you?At this time, he couldn't have an attack, so he took a sip of tea suddenly, calmed down, and then said two words: "No."

"I also want to find this group of people, and thank them very much." Meng Bo's two words were very serious.Zhong Wanli felt secretly refreshed when he heard this.

"Okay, okay." Xuanjizi was impatient to hear this, he was concerned about who the man in white was.

"Patriarch Zhong, it's rare to come to your Zhong family. Why don't you introduce your family members to me? I have a very good impression of this young man." Xuanjizi pointed at Wang Chenghao who was drinking tea quietly at the end.
